So, you had asked about materials to study in a previous comment. While I found no concrete materials yet, maybe looking for questions related to proficiency level tests could be a good start? Like for example in my case, to study materials oriented at norskprøve (for Norwegian), JLPT (for Japanese), or to practice since I don't get many chances to speak in Spanish, SIELE's test.

Hey Auster (I believe that was your name - just going off of memory so it might be wrong). Thanks to you I went down the rabbit hole on the 30 Years War. As soon as I started, I said oh yeah, it's this! I remember a bit about this. It was a fun romp and I wanted to send some thanks your way.

And thank you for the detailed suggestion, I'm copying it into my study notes to preserve it. That actually would be wonderful, because to understand the base of a language you would in fact begin to see the etymological roots shared among one another. There was a really interesting article someone posted on here within the past two weeks about the spread of Asiatic and African languages. Did you see it?

About the history rabbit hole, glad I was able to help! ^_^ If you'd be interested for more history musics, Radio Tapok and Glittertind have some too, with Radio Tapok singing mainly about Russian history, and Glittertind, iirc, having only one history-oriented album, Evige Asatro.

And about the the article, don't think I did. But maybe it was about Afrikaans? Iirc, it's a variant of Dutch. Or maybe it was Macau or Philippines? Memory might be failing me, since it's been a while since I checked into them, but I vaguely remember reading that they speak variants of Portuguese and Spanish, respectively.
